---------------------------------

Brett,

re 'a rare case', obviously my familiarity with these internal APIs and there 
usage is greatly limited so I will defer to your expertese but in general I 
would have thought that if someone is using an accessor to retreive a value 
they will want the cooked version of that 'property' and not an internal/meta 
representation of it, after all what use is ${foo.bar} to the developer who has 
called getUrl()? 

I'll keep a keen eye out for your MSITE-71 code as I have a number of plugins 
that i've had to make reactor dependent in order to gain access to properly 
interpolated parent model data.

re 'integration tests' - yep, thats exactly what i meant :) 


> MavenProject::getParent() returns a MavenProject that is NOT interpolated
